Pork liver is an ideal blood tonic. It has the effects of nourishing the liver, improving eyesight and nourishing blood. Pork liver is used to treat symptoms such as blood deficiency and chlorosis, night blindness, red eyes, edema, and athlete's foot. Pork liver is suitable for people with weak qi and blood, sallow complexion, and iron deficiency anemia. It is suitable for people with blurred vision, night blindness, dry eye, keratomalacia after measles, internal and external cataracts and other eye diseases caused by insufficient liver blood. It is suitable for cancer patients and after radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, because the cholesterol content in the liver is high, people with hypertension and coronary heart disease should not eat pork liver, and pork liver that is diseased and discolored or has nodules should not be eaten.
Pork liver is rich in vitamin A. Eating pork liver regularly can gradually eliminate eye diseases. Pork liver is rich in iron and phosphorus, which are indispensable raw materials for hematopoiesis. Pork liver is rich in protein, lecithin and trace elements, which are beneficial to children's intellectual and physical development. Pork liver has a variety of anti-cancer substances, such as vitamin C, selenium, etc., and the liver also has a strong anti-cancer ability and contains special substances that resist fatigue.

Side effects and contraindications of eating pig liver

People with high blood pressure and coronary heart disease should avoid eating liver that has changed color or has nodules due to the high cholesterol content in the liver. According to previous experience, pig liver should not be eaten with pheasant meat, sparrow meat and fish.
Pork liver contains a variety of nutrients, including vitamin A and trace elements iron, zinc and copper. It is tender and delicious, but the pork liver must be detoxified before eating.
The pig liver is the largest detoxification organ in the pig body. Various toxic metabolites and certain toxic substances mixed in the food, such as pesticides, will gather in the liver and be detoxified and excreted by it, or transported to the kidneys after chemical processing and excreted in the urine. The liver can also cause inflammation and even liver cancer. In addition, there may be diseases such as liver parasites.
If the liver cannot completely eliminate various toxic substances or its detoxification function decreases, the toxic substances will remain in the blood in the liver, which may induce cancer, leukemia and other diseases.
Since the toxic blood in the pig liver is dispersed and stored in tens of thousands of liver sinusoids, you should rinse the pig liver under the tap after buying it, and then soak it in a basin for 1 to 2 hours to remove the residual blood. Make sure the water completely immerses the pig liver. If the pig liver is in a hurry to cook, you can cut it into 4 to 6 pieces according to its size, gently wash it in a basin, and then put it in a net basket and rinse it under tap water.
In addition, do not try to make the pork liver tender when stir-frying, otherwise, it will neither effectively remove toxins nor kill bacteria and parasite eggs.
Other taboos
1. Patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease should eat less pork liver. Pork liver contains high cholesterol. If you eat too much at one time, you will ingest more cholesterol, which will lead to arteriosclerosis and aggravate cardiovascular disease. Therefore, patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease should eat less pork liver. [1]
2. It is not suitable to eat with vitamin C. Vitamin C is easily oxidized and destroyed, especially when it encounters certain trace elements. The copper content in pig liver is high, which can combine with vitamin C and make vitamin C lose its original function. Therefore, you cannot take vitamin C while eating pig liver.
3. Do not take enzyme preparations when eating pig liver. Common enzyme preparations include pepsin, pancreatic enzyme, amylase, multi-enzyme tablets, etc. The copper in pig liver can form precipitates with the acidic genes of enzyme proteins and amino acid molecules, affecting the efficacy of the medicine.
